there should be a black plasticky block on the rear side. there are two on each side, those are jack points.

"Technique:
Pull the handbrake firmly.
Jack up front of the car (under the engine)
Post stands in front (2 lateral)
Jack up the rear (under differential)
Place the next 2 stands at the rear. Done."

We also have our jack pad adapter available to make using them a bit easier.
